Nice staying with friends

Good hotel for a staying close to touristic areas. Easy to reach by bus. The breakfast is at 500mt in an affiliated cafe but was ok. Room and bathroom were clean.

6/10 Good

Everything was fine overall, except for one concerning incident: a staff member opened our door to let another guest in without verifying their room assignment. Although they later apologized, this is a serious breach of security. Fortunately, we were in the room at the time, and as a couple, the situation was manageable. However, had one of us been alone, out of the room, or in the shower, it would have been entirely unacceptable. The hotel should ensure guest safety and privacy.

静かでした

宿泊階行エレベーターがフロントの奥にあるのでセキュリティ万全。 部屋に衣類芳香消臭剤、バスルームにクロースラインロープやシャワーカーテンポールがあったか覚えていませんが、ホテルに1階にコインランドリーがあるので長期滞在問題なし。 部屋にはPC作業などできる程度の机がありリモートワークや出張中の事務作業も可能。 商店街近くの立地ですがあまり騒がしくありませんでした。

プライベートな空間を確保しつつ寝るだけのホテルであれば十分すぎるほど。

部屋はとてもきれいで清潔で良かったです。 ただ、チェックイン前に荷物を預かっていただいたのですが、狭いフロント前に置かれるので、スタッフが目を離した隙に外部から簡単に盗られるのでは?と不安になりました。 預かる荷物の保管スペースは安全な所に確保していただければと思います。

Ein modernes, sauberes und smart eingerichtetes Hotel mit allem was man für einen Städtetrip braucht. Die Lage ist super, Anbindung an die Stadt und Umgebung sehr leicht zu Fuß oder mit öffentlichen Verkehrsmitteln. Nettes und hilfreiches Personal. Gerne wieder.

Convient place

Convient but there is another smart place inn there is closer to station. This one is placed in the middle of two stations - both 8-10 min walk. Quite area to stay even though it is close to centrum. Room has a fairly size - could maybe ude a deep cleen because there was kinda dusty. The staff were very friendly and helpful.

初めてビジネスで利用させていただきました。疲れを癒すお風呂が更にお疲れの場に バスルームにはシャンプー二本とコンディショナーが一本 どうやって体を洗うのでしょうね? 疲れていたのでロビーに連絡をするのも面倒で自分が持参しているボディーソープを出して使いました。

Nice and quiet stay in Kyoto

M‘s Inn Omiya Kuromon is definitely a recommendable place to stay in Kyoto. It is located in a very quiet neighboorhood, so it will be hard to find open restaurants at night. Very convenient is the free shuttle bus from the M’s Information Center just outside the Kyoto Main Train Station. You can also keep your luggage there or let it send to your hotel but check the timetables before. The staff at the information center was unfortunately super rude and impolite which provided a very bad first impression to us. However, the staff at our hotel was always nice and helpful. Our transportation hub for trains and all buses was the Omiya station which is a 600 meter walk away. It is quite a pain to walk this distance several times. There is another M‘s Inn closer to the station, we would look for a room there next time. However, the station is good because you have direct access to the train to the Arashiyama Bamboo Forest and it is just 2 stations to Karawamachi with many restaurants and access to the Gion area. Our room was small but thats normal in Japan. It was located at the end of the floor so the internet connection was a bit slow which is the only minus. They clean the room just every 3 days which is okay since they change the towels every day if you like. Laundry is for free which is a big plus. However, the dryer needs very much time, so only use this for small laundry. We stayed 5 nights here and slept well. We can definitely recommend this hotel.
Tino, 5-night trip

8/10 Very good

The location was great as we were off the beaten track and had a good insight into more local Kyoto rather than the key tourist areas. The hotel itself was great but the staff weren’t very personable. The advertised ‘staffed desk’ is probably an overeach as we had to check in and out through an iPad. The room and amenities were very good

安いですが、清潔で快適でした 難点はフロント業務に時間制限があるので、遅くにチェックインされる方は少し難ありです。他は良いと思います。

This property is a block away from a local market and super markets, massage, hair salon, etc. From time to time they have a front desk representative, but most likely there will be no one there. You must access via a pass code to main entrance and your room. Laundry service was a plus!

Our experience was completely different to the reviews on here saying that the check-in procedure was difficult. It couldn't have been any easier for us. So clever and streamlined. The property was fantastic and located in a really nice part of Kyoto. A special mention goes to Brulee Kyoto just around the corner in Sanjo Dori for the best donuts going around! Also, the staff -especially Kae - at the central reception near Kyoto Station were super helpful, going above and beyond to help us with booking onwards ticket. Highly recommended!
